$45.00

Preface by Artemis Cooper. Illus. with decorations by John Minton and from watercolors by Sophie MacCarthy. 9.75x7", green cloth-backed dec. boards. London: Folio Society, 2008.

Sophie MacCarthy's iconic watercolours enliven both the cover and the pages of the book. French Country Cooking was first published by John Lehman in 1951 and a revised edition followed in 1958. A second revised edition was published in 1966. This text of this edition follows that of the second revised edition, reprinted with revisions by Penguin Books in 2001, with minor emendations.

Fine.
